Hellas Verona has remained unbeaten in the last eight Serie A matches against Cagliari (5W, 3D), keeping a clean sheet in three of the last four matches; the last Sardinian success dates back to 5 November 2017 (2-1 thanks to goals from Luca Ceppitelli and Paolo Faragò who responded to the goal of the Gialloblù Bruno Zuculini).

In the three-points-for-a-win era (since 1994/95), Hellas Verona have won 10 of 17 matches against Cagliari in Serie A (D4, L3), more than against any other team this term in the competition. In particular, after the two successes in the last two matches against the rossoblù in the tournament, the Venetian team could win several matches in a row against this opponent for only the second time in the top championship after having achieved it between 1999 and 2013 (three also in that case).

Hellas Verona have not lost any of the last three matches played at Cagliari in Serie A (2W, 1D) and have never collected more away games without defeat against the rossoblù in the competition (three in a row also between 1973 and 1976 – 1V, 2N).

After four matches in a row without defeat in Serie A (W2, D2), Cagliari lost the last match against Monza without scoring (0-1); the rossoblù could record two consecutive defeats without a goal in the competition for the first time since March 2022 (three in that case, under the technical guidance of Walter Mazzarri).

Hellas Verona won their last away match in this championship (1-0 against Lecce) and could collect two consecutive away wins in the competition for the first time since 30 April 2022, when the second of these came against Cagliari (2-1 at the Unipol Domus thanks to goals by Antonín Barák and Gianluca Caprari for the yellow-blues and by João Pedro for the Sardinians).

On the one hand, Cagliari is the team that has spent the fewest minutes ahead in Serie A this season (290), on the other, Hellas Verona is the team that has been ahead in the away score for the fewest minutes (95).

Since the beginning of 2024, Hellas Verona has been the team with the most goals from outside the area in the top five European championships (six of the seven long-range goals for the yellow-blue team in this tournament have come in this new calendar year) while Cagliari is the team who has achieved fewer in this Serie A (one, that of Gianluca Gaetano against Lazio, last February 10).

Jakub Jankto was involved in three goals against Hellas Verona in Serie A (one goal for Sampdoria in 2021; two assists for Udinese in 2017 and 2018) and only against Crotone (five) did he do better in the competition. In particular, the Gialloblù could become the first team against which the midfielder is directly involved in at least one goal with three different shirts in the competition.

Alberto Dossena is the defender in this championship who has recovered the most balls (163), engaged in and won the most duels (290 and 175), engaged in and won the most aerial duels (154 and 92); furthermore, he is the only central defender to have participated in at least five goals (two goals, three assists).

Since his debut in the yellow-blue shirt in Serie A on 28 January 2024, Tijjani Noslin is the Hellas Verona player who has kicked the most times on goal (seven), with the most balls played in the opponent’s area (15) and one of the two with the most goals scored (two goals like Folorunsho).
